Product Overview
The Portwest RWS Hi-Vis Bib & Brace is a substantial piece of professional safety equipment designed for those who require maximum visibility without sacrificing comfort. Engineered specifically for demanding environments such as the rail industry, this garment provides comprehensive coverage, ensuring you remain seen and protected throughout your shift. The orange colourway is designed for high-conspicuousness, making it an essential addition to any safety-conscious work wardrobe.
Key Features
- The hi-vis orange fabric ensures you remain clearly visible in low-light conditions, which is a vital safety requirement for rail and roadside work.
- Constructed from a polycotton blend, this garment offers the breathability of cotton paired with the hard-wearing durability of polyester for long-lasting use.
- The bib and brace design provides additional torso protection and a secure fit that stays in place even during strenuous physical activity.
- The unisex fit makes this a versatile choice for entire workforces, simplifying the uniform ordering process for business owners.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a medium-weight fabric, this bib and brace strikes a perfect balance between being sturdy enough to handle site work and light enough to allow for easy movement. The polycotton material is chosen for its resilience; it is designed to withstand the daily scuffs and scrapes of a busy site without thinning. The garment's construction focuses on longevity, ensuring that it remains a reliable part of your uniform even after months of heavy use.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is available with both print and embroidery customisation. Our in-house team, established in 1976 and based in Telford, handles all customisation to ensure a professional finish that reflects your brand's standards.
Embroidery delivers a textured, premium appearance that is ideal for company logos and individual names. It is exceptionally durable and stands up to repeated washing without fading or fraying. For larger, bolder designs or a broader range of colours, our printing service is highly effective, ensuring your brand stands out clearly on the hi-vis background.
Use Cases
This garment is specifically engineered for professionals in the rail industry, road maintenance, and heavy construction sectors. It is the preferred choice for those who need to be visible from a distance while requiring the functional benefits of chest-high protective clothing that won't slip down like standard trousers.

Practical Advice
With a size range spanning from Small to 4XL, we can accommodate most team members comfortably. As this is a bib and brace style, we recommend considering the layers you intend to wear underneath; the medium-weight fabric works exceptionally well over a base layer or polo shirt, providing warmth without excessive bulk.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and visibility of this garment, keeping it clean is essential. Regular washing ensures that the fluorescent fabric remains bright and that dirt does not obscure the reflective elements, which could compromise your safety.
When cleaning, avoid the use of bleach. Bleaching agents will break down the fluorescent dyes and damage the fabric's integrity, leading to a loss of visibility. We recommend air drying where possible; high-heat drying can lead to minor shrinkage and may damage the reflective strips over time. If ironing is required, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with any custom prints or reflective tapes to ensure they remain intact and functional.
